Work on developing a smoother and more effective arm stroke. Right now, your arm circle is very short. While it’s fine to have a compact arm action—many Major League pitchers use similar mechanics—yours is currently too short to maximize efficiency. Focus on lengthening out the circle to create a more fluid motion.
In addition, work on gliding and driving down the mound instead of jumping. This adjustment will help you engage your legs more effectively and create better extension. As you progress, aim to get as extended as possible, almost as if you’re reaching out to place the ball directly into the catcher’s glove. This will not only improve your efficiency but also enhance your power and control. Finish your motion with a strong follow-through to complete the delivery. Keep refining these areas, and you’ll see significant improvements in your pitching mechanics.

Great job overall! Your mechanics are solid, and you’re building a strong foundation at the plate. One area to focus on is cleaning up your load. Right now, your load tends to wrap around your body, which can pull you out of position and affect your ability to stay compact and explosive. A more compact load will help keep your hands in an optimal position to attack the ball efficiently, ensuring you stay balanced and in control throughout your swing. Think of loading as coiling your energy rather than over-rotating, which allows for quicker, more direct movements toward the ball.
Another key adjustment is making sure your swing is driven by your hands rather than your shoulders. When your shoulders take over, it can cause your swing to roll over, which limits your ability to make solid, consistent contact. By focusing on engaging your hands first, you’ll create a more direct and controlled bat path to the ball. This adjustment not only helps prevent rolling over but also allows for greater barrel control and better extension through the ball.
To work on these areas, consider drills that isolate your hand path and promote a compact load, such as one-handed tee drills or controlled slow-motion swings. Incorporating these changes will lead to more consistent contact, better power, and an overall improved approach at the plate. Keep building on these adjustments, and you’ll see noticeable results in your performance.
